Make this large luxury Re-Useable Christmas Cracker. ALL MATERIALS INCLUDED
For a more eco-friendly Christmas, you can re-use these crackers for years to come. They are not filled with single use plastics and you can add your own useful, and more environmentally friendly gifts tailored for each person.
This unique Christmas Cracker has been designed by Jane Gordon. It includes 2 separate bags with velcro bases. The bags are covered with a sturdy fabric tube so the bag contents are completely hidden. The cracker can be pulled in the same way as a traditional cracker with a crackle sound from the velcro rather than a banger.
The pattern includes 2 cracker sizes.
Large for an impressive table decoration or small which is the size of a standard single use cracker. Some makers use the large cracker as an inventive present wrapping, making the cracker part of their gift.

We will work through the pattern step by step and ensure that everyone is up to speed before moving on past any stage. Because of this, some of you will have a bit more time in between stages than others. This will give you time to nibble on your snacks and drink you tea!
